THREE LOAFERS.

Three loafers stood out on the streets all day
And talked when they should have been
looking for work;
The fruits of hard labor they gladly eat, r.
But labor is a horror they shirk.
For men will loaf and complain of hard
times,
Accusing the rich men of all kinds OF crimes,
While the bright world lies before them.
Three wives stood over their washtubs grim,
Thew washed and they scrubbed till the
sun went down;
Each thought of the vagrant who called he'
wife,
And patiently struggled her sorrow to
drown.
For women must work and men must eat,
And somebody must make both ends meet.
And the landlord calls in the morning.
Three "drunks" lay out stiff in the station
house
Law there in their cells at the break of day.
Three poor wives came down with their hard
earned mites,
The fines of these lords of creation to pay.
For woman's devotion is part of her life;
The bigger the b. ute the more faithful the
wit:
And so twill go on forever.

Around the World in 81 Day.

New YORK, May lin one of
the mail pouches in the steamer
Alaska when she sailed to-day was a
Russian postal card which is now
completing it's journey around the
world. Should it have a good voy-
age it will get to its destination in
just 81 days. On the reverse of the
card is written in a fair English
hand:
This postal card is, as matter of bet, IN
tended to be mailed around the globe within
100 days. That is to say, in such an order as
mentioned at foot. All parties TO whom it
has been directed will greatly oblige by can
ceiling the old address and putting the next
one in place of it, at the same time stating
day of arrival and remailing in the blank

willingly repaid, and any of the parties de-
string will receive full copy after return of
this card
May it travel safely and soon return.
OSCAR SMIT,
Libeau, Russia
"LIBEAU, Is February, 10 evening, 1887"
The card was first addressed to
John Little & Co., Singapore. They
received it March 80, and remailed it
the next day to J. Rickett, in Yoka-
hama, Japan. 1t reached them April
10 at PM, but they did not remail
it until April Is, when they sent it to
John H Boden & Co, San Francisco.
1t arrived there April 80, and was
not forwarded until May 2, when it
was sent to Mr.. r. F. Downing, in
this city. He received it yesterday
and mailed it to Mr.. Smit at Libeau
by the Alaska. Should the ship
make her usual time the card should
reach Libeau in ample time to win the
bet. 1t is SO covered with postoffice
cancellations that it is with difficulty
its face can be read.

An Original Set of Pic lures.
Chicago News.1

II you'll wait minute I'll get you
the proofs of q very original set of
pictures. Here they are. Look like
a lot of scenes from a play don't they.
They belong to Michigan lady. She
came to me not long ago and made
an appointment for herself and hus-
for the next morning. She said I
had better reserve at least three
hours, as she wanted a complete set
of pictures taken, and would have to
change her dress several times. They
arrived the next day with a Saratoga
trunk and o valise, and had them
brought up to the dres sing room.
1t turned out that they were a
bride and groom, and that she had
been struck with the idea of having
series of pictures taken commemorate
ing each important event in their
courtship. The submissive groom
himself didn't seem to think the idea
particularly brilliant one, but he
evidently had to give in.
First" she said, "we'll have our
Introduction" and she made him put

rayed herself in a pink gauzy affair

first met at picnic-and these were
the identical clothes worn on the oc-
casioD. She remembered how they
had stood when presented to each
other, and had the little scene repro
duced as nearly as possible Then
they changed to evening dress and
were taken as they appeared when
waltzing together for the first time.
No. 3 is the boating picture. I don't
exactly know what it commentaries,
but suppose some especially tender
passage. Then she wanted to have
the proposal scene. but he objected
to that, and so vigorously that 1 at
once suspected him of having resort.
ed to his knees on the occasion. They
had quite tiff over it, but finally
compromised it on the time when she
played him the Moonlight Sonata"
The piano was wheeled in and, in my
opinion, that makes the prettiest pic
ture of all. Here is at the altar.
That's the last of present series, but
believe they intend coming to town
every year, on the anniversary of
their wedding day, for the purpose
adding a new one to the collec-
tion.

How She Lost Her Maid.

Clara Belle, in one of her notable
letters, says:
Speaking of humbug, Fifth Ave,
bellies maid, trim, pretty creature,
suddenly disappeared recently; and
it was wonder, because the girl was
we'll paid in proportion to her good
looks-for it is deliciously swell now
to have pretty body servant, She
had not seemingly been dissatisfied
with her work or wages. Her en-
ployer feared that some sentimental
harm had come to her, and charitably
went so far as to hire private de-
tective to hunt her up, Where do
you think he found her? She was an
advertising exhibit in a hair-wash es-
tablishment. There is boom on in
that industry. Phenomenally long
haired women are posed in the win
dows of stores where hair tonics are
ON sale, and competition is hot. The
comely maid had luxuriant tresses,
which grew so heavily and rapidly
that she went periodically to hair
dresser to have them cut short.
"How much wages do you get?"
he asked her. -
"Twenty-four dollars a mn~.th,6 she
replied.
Il can get you double that" he
said, "and nothing at all to do except
to be admired. Oh, don't be alarmed
there's no harm in it. Messrs.
Blank & Co., the well known makers
of Cerulian Glory, want to boom
their stuff. You are just the girl
they desire. You will have your
head shaved close. Then they will
show you freely to their customers.
telling them that you lost your hair
years ago by fever, and had given up
all hopes of regaining it; you have
tried many preparations in vain; they
are going to experiment on you.
Your hair grows fast and fne-it is
on view from day to day-it becomes
a marvel-the fame of it spreads by
word of mouth, and by the time your
head has regained its usual beauty
they have sold 1000 extra bottles of
Cerulian. and you have received
three months extra wages. Sea?"
She saw; and that was how the

UNWILLING CEREMONIES.


At IL O'Clock Marshal Wilson, TAX
ing his place on the stand, said:-
Attention, ladies and gentlemen:
The Society of the Army of the Cum
berland, with these distinguished
guests, are assembled here to-day for
the purpose of unveiling the statue of
that eminent statesman and soldier,
James A. Garfield. The exercises
will be opened with prayer by the
Rev, DR.. Giesy."
In his prayer the clergyman refer
red in glowing language to the
merits of the illustrious stateman to
whom the statue was erected. The
Marine Band surrounding the monu-
ment struck up "nail to the Chief"
and amid the clapping of hands the
American flag enveloping the statue
was dropped and the great bronze
image stood exposed to the rays OF
the midday sun.
There was q short lull in the pro-
ceedings while a battery of artillery
fred q National salute. Gen. Sheri-
dan then introduced the orator of the
day-Gen. J, Warren Keifer-who,
